Hey am new here but have been reading the forums for a while and i must say it is very helpful.

Anyways i am looking at building my first real gaming rig but not to sure on what is the best parts, i am thinking the i7 2600K but thats all am sure about. My budget is around £1000 - £1500 pushing it to the limit. I dont need a monitor or any thing else like that, but you can include a good gaming keyboard and mouse if you dont mind.

I am also thinking about SLI if it fits in the budget.

Thanks in advance

Ops thought i coverd every thing, It will be mainly for gaming and internet browsing but i may start video capture and editing. I dont need a OS, i have windows 7 64bit.

I hope this covers every thing and i havent missed anything.

Thanks for that setup and the link is great, not much at all in the two but a big saving.
Would it be better to get two 570's and SLI them over a 580 or 590? Also i mite have a look into watercooling if i have the spare cash around (that will prob be later on) will that case have anothe room?

Also if i was to say the budget is £1500 could i get a better setup or would it just be spending more money for the fun of it?

Thanks for the very fast reply. The CPU cooler looks good should keep my temps down.

Would this be better than the two 570's? also i can get another on in like a month or so so would have 2?

Also what does every one else think.

Hmm so if i can build a gaming rig for under £1000 to play all modern games on ultra with frame rate of around 60+ What would this be as if its around the £600 i could get it all this friday.

Thanks
